Quirky but Useful Gifts: Rob Enderle’s 2018 Personal Tech Product Guide

Quirky but Useful Gifts: Rob Enderle's 2018 Personal Tech Product Guide

This is the time of year for a product guide, and this year I thought I'd list my favorite unusual products as gift ideas. I'm a big fan of products most people don't have that solve a specific work problem, as well as those that could make your (or my) life easier, more comfortable or more fun.

I like to give gifts that people actually would use. In some cases, due to the cost, these may be things you'd buy only for yourself, a spouse, or a relative you really want to impress.

So here is my guide to 2018's personal products that have a bit of wow associated with them.

2-in-1 Laptops

US software giant Microsoft has pledged to give the Pentagon access to its “best technology” despite criticism from employees, breaking with other tech companies that are reconsidering military companies after facing internal backlash.

Brad Smith, Microsoft’s president and chief legal officer, said Saturday that the corporation was “going to provide the US Defense Department with access to the best technology … all the technology we create. Full stop.”

Speaking during a panel at the Reagan National Defense Forum at the Ronald Reagan Presidential Library in Simi Valley, California, Smith acknowledged that there was “some angst” among the company’s workforce about involvement in military contracts but Microsoft was not going to change course.

That’s opposite to what Google did in June after facing pressure from thousands of employees about involvement in the Pentagon’s..

Islamic extremists are now using drones: Buhari

Islamic extremists in Nigeria have begun using drones, the country’s president says, opening a worrying new front in the region’s nearly decade-long fight against Boko Haram and an offshoot linked to the Islamic State.

Weaponized drones
President Muhammadu Buhari announced the development during a meeting on Thursday of countries that contribute troops to a multinational force combatting the extremists.

This appears to be the first confirmed use of drones by an extremist group in Africa, according to the World of Drones project run by the Washington-based New America think tank. Its section on non-state actors notes that Libyan rebels are reported to have used drones for surveillance in that chaotic North African nation.

Deadly attacks against Nigeria’s military are on the rise, with 39 soldiers killed this month alone and another 43 wounded. The extremists’ use of drones for surveillance in the country’s northeast has proven to be a “critical factor” in the resurgence of attacks,..
